BlackBerry :: Cannot Find Option For Hotspot On 9900
Feb 27, 2012
I cannot find option for hotspot on 9900. I'm check many videos online and should be under network option or wirelesses option, but there is no on my mobile. Mobile is brand new. how to turn on hot spot on BB 9900?
My blackberry bold 9900 can not find satellites for gps. Every now and again it works bot only for a few minutes. Could this be my service provider which is vodafone australia. Or is it my blackbery?
Using your BlackBerry 9900's WiFi hotspot feature.. other devices can connect but the browsing experience on the other devices is worse than 56k dialup.I'm using a Bold 9900 7.1 Bundle 1646 (v7.1.0.523) on Virgin (Bell)'s network.
i have a Curve 9300 & wish to move on to a new BB now... so thinking which Blackberry supports Hotspotfunction so that i can get that one. I also have a Samsung galaxy Tab 2 on which i will be use the data plan of Blackberry smartphone.
Instead of the usual Wifi menu in the settings menu, it is replaced by Personal Hotspot which is also greyed out. It is on 5.0.1. It can connect to 3G perfectly fine however.
I have an Iphone 4S on ios 5.1.1, and there is no option for 'personal hotspot' anywhere in settings! How do I fix this? I have restored my iphone, but that didnt help. When I go to Settings > General > Network I get these options: Enable 3G, Cellular Data, Cellular Data Network, Data Roaming, VPN, Wi-Fi. My friends have iphones and have a 'Personal Hotspot' option. Surely we all have the same OS since we are all on 5.1.1! How can this happen? All other forums have told me to 'Acivate Personal Hotspot' with my carrier. But how can I do this if there is no option in the settings?
On a embedded PC I've configued a hotspot for mobile devices - any device can connect to WiFi it provides and use it to access websites. However one of our customers told us that he can't use it with Blackberry.Only funcionality we need is website access, no need for UMA or any other extra BB-specific features.First problem we had was that BB couldn't associate to hotspot at all. That is fixed now by disabling 'wmm' on hotspot.Problem that stays open is accessing websites. The browser is set to 'hotspot mode' but whenever i enter url in a browser the request times out. The gateway is correct, DNS-server (gateway itself) is correct too, IP address is assigned correct.I dug into it and i can see that most of DNS queries don't reach the hotspot at all. When i try DNS test utility results are the same - most DNS queries don't reach hotspot. I can see BB exchanging ARP 'who has' APR 'is at' packets and thats all.Ping to my hotspot works when i chose 'WiFi -gateway' (however it responds only once after ~1600ms, later requests time-out). When I try to ping it via IP all request time out (however i can see in logs that ping reaches my hotspot and it responds immediately).Hotspot config is atheros (2413) based wifi card in ap mode. Driver is ath5k from 2.6.38 kernel. I use hostapd to create wifi network and dnsmasq as DHCP/DNS server.
I have iPhone 4S and an iPad2 WiFi both running iOS5.1
I use the iPhone hotspot function to get the iPad on the internett when not at home. This workes great, I had to type inn the WiFi password the first time i connected the iPad, later the iPad connects without having to type the password.
Since iOS 5.1 the iPad sometimes have problems finding the iPhone hotspot. I turn on the "shared internet" function of the iPhone, open the smartcover on the iPad, but it does not connect (the two attached rings does not appear). If I go to Settings>WiFi on the iPad, the iPhone WiFi hotspot does not show up, the iPad just keeps searching. Then after a little while, the iPad suddently connect, ususally after I open Safari or Mail or something on the iPad. If I then close the smartcover, and leave the iPhone hotspot on, reopen the iPad smart cover, again the iPad does not seem to find the WiFi hotspot. I have to turn the hotspot function off/on on the iPhone, and then after a little while it works. When first connected,everything works OK.
I just went thru the settings once again and the browser option shows only hotspot browser.phone : storm 2 9550.How do i get the WAP browser or whatever it is called.
Does any one know where I can find my password to allow people to use my hotspot. I cannot for the life of me remember if I created the password or if it was an automaticlly given one. I successfully used it at work but the password was saved on the devices so I did not have to remember it.
I couldn't find the personal hotspot.Sincerely , I've tried all ways to return it back , but I could not from restining the network setting ,Also I have network in my sem card.So I need a troubleshooting for it , plz :)
I have activated Personal Hotspot with my carrier AT&T. I cannot find Personal Hotspot listed under General>Network setting. I have tried to Reset Network settings but it is still not appearing. I am running an iPhone 4 with the latest iOS 5.1.
Info: iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1, Personal Hotspot does not show up
